Set in 1974, IMAGINARY GIRL -- interprets the real-life story surrounding the 1974 political kidnapping of a 19-year-old media heiress by a ragtag militant group. After being held captive in a closet for 59 days, she emerges declaring her new identity as Tania and her “choice” to join her kidnappers' mission to overthrow the US government. As her unbelievable ordeal unfolds, it is dissected, distorted and exploited by The Media, and holds the world spellbound as Patty changes from an innocent victim into a fugitive outlaw right in front of our eyes.
This play's real-life TRUE STORY centers on A STRONG COMPLEX FEMALE PROTAGONIST who eventually discovers she is the only one who can save herself.
IMAGINARY GIRL takes-on a newly-emerging 21st century theme: The Disintegration of Consensus Reality, the end of our once-universal and once-dependable shared reality. This theme is illuminated BEYOND the identity-confusion of the play’s central character. The play reveals how ALL conflicts – internal, interpersonal, and political – are BATTLES OF COMPETING VERSIONS OF REALITY.
The play asks us to prompts the question:
How much of our personal and political identity is guided by forces beyond our own freewill?
